Picked up another crew cab tonight.. currently just a parts truck but may become a beater at some point.
454, sm465, Doug Nash overdrive, np205, Dana 44, 14 bolt.
I bought it for the rear end with disk brakes.
Check out this hackery contraption of rear suspension. Leaf springs with coils up front?

He has a c30 dually but I think he's keeping it. Other than that just the camo truck which I think he would sell
That's too bad.

I've been slacking on the updates. I got my 2wd gearbox rebuilt and drilled for hydro assist. Currently working on getting the rear axle finished up. Headed to pick up another housing since the previous owner destroyed it trying to cut the brackets off.
Borrowed UNCLE RICKS F450 and headed to @82355 squarebody sanctuary to pick up a housing.

How did the steering box rebuild go? Be been thinking about rebuilding mine rather than paying for one that some other monkey like me rebuilt.
I second that notion.. Ive read the stuff over at pirate and swapped my sector over..
Sweet. If you can do it... Jk Steve. Lol
Exactly.. a monkey can!

It wasn't too bad. Getting all the balls back into it was a little trick but once I figured that out it was easy.
Was it just hard to keep them in place?

Yeah its hard to expain. You have to basically make a circle with them inside of the the piston and then thread the worm gear in. Wheel bearing grease helps to hold them in place and then I cleaned it out with brake clean after it was assembled.
I think I know what you are talking about. Vaseline works good for holding things in place. I worked with a guy that used it for building transmissions and transfer cases and he never had any issues with it. I've been partially into a steering box but haven't tried to rebuild one so this is good to know! Thanks!

Got the rear axle cleaned up and all the brackets fit and tacked in place. Getting ready to weld it all up. Hoping to have the rear all finished up this weekend!
